A very short – but steeply uphill – route. Cycle lane provided on Market Street, and advanced stop line provided at junction with The Mound. Remainder of route brief but steeply uphill & cobbled. Only the most fit & committed of cyclists would want to cycle this section. Probably also not suitable for cycling in summer months due to conflict with pedestrian (tourist) flows. Best to get off & push!]]>http://files.viewranger.com/image/719f5355f89603a76b382fb9f5dde9d4.jpg Network Rail, in its infinite wisdom, has decided that cyclists pose a grave risk to life and limb. So the ramps into the station remain closed to all except a handful of delivery vehicles while rail travellers are crowded on to the narrow walkways. Overall, a pretty grim welcome to Edinburgh for rail travellers.]]>http://files.viewranger.com/image/a17fe10e92ac7432a58141fbc54ccfd7.jpg Turn left on to Waverley Bridge.]]>http://files.viewranger.com/image/b888c613d7e49dba305ed290550d9c4e.jpg At the roundabout, turn right to head up Market Street.]]>http://files.viewranger.com/image/0435510a3ca99c999feca2558cf1a93e.jpg Head up the cycle lane.]]>http://files.viewranger.com/image/42b188643c3bbe872da04ddcfc32e27c.jpg Head straight across at the lights.
